Opening on August 28th in Brookyln, NY is solo exhibition, “VICTORY” by Alex Ito, recent recipient of the summer residency at The Still House Group, a emerging arts organization run by artists.  Still House supports a unit of young artists, providing them with an environment to conceptualize, produce and exhibit their work. Other Still House residents include: Peter Sutherland, Jogging, Alex Da Corte, Peter Linden, Haley Mellin, and more.

 

The strong emphasis on collaboration encourages members of the group to assist, critique and formally represent one another, ultimately creating a collective drive that balances the advancement of individual careers with the growth of Still House the entity. Still House’s location serves as a hub for new work, a satellite environment to the art center of Manhattan where young artists engage in a space of their own.

 

The only words in the press release are, “This is a show about winning”, an intriguing introduction to what will be on view at Still House.

 

This exhibition will be on view until September 22nd. For more information visit here.
